Which is your favourite Greek dish?
“I don’t have a particular favourite – but I do like the mezes style of serving food: little dishes which we can all share. I love calamari, Greek salad, fried cheese (halloumi) and fried zucchini. The Greek diet is a very healthy one—lots of olive oil, and sauces with honey too. ” Rebecca Hall, British living in Greece, Life Beyond Borders blog
